RIGHT NEEDLE 

Today I am grateful for discovering a unique analogy or metaphor while sewing fabrics over the sewing machine. While sewing I discovered that every piece of cloth requires a different needle, for instance, for jeans, cotton, plastic, linen and sheet I require a distinct or suitable needle otherwise the machine is not able to sew any fabric or material. At this moment I realized that even sewing accurately the right needle is required. This analogy encourages me to understand that for spending life we need the correct needle or right strategy then equipped to sew life in the right direction or connect pieces in a right place. I appreciate and recognize its significance in our life for many reasons, for instance:

• The right needle is for the correct stitching, if we don't know this concept, we might be blaming the sewing machine for not sewing or maybe we might not stitch fabric at the time we needed. In each situation, we waste our time and energy. Understanding the right needle for the right fabric is extremely significant for continuity in the sewing process

• The right needle analogy helps to recognize the value of knowing and identifying the right attitude, mindset, strategies and approaches for the life, for instance:

• What if the wrong needle is used? or in other words, people might be using the wrong approaches towards life or resolving conflict but failed

• What if ones don't realize that the needle is wrong? People may spend their whole life without realizing that the strategy is wrong for spending a life or dealing with the situation 

• What if we don't change the needle when it is needed? Sometimes it is needed to change approach to the situation to situation or person to person but we don't change or adapt to a new approach 

• What if we blam the sewing machine instead of the changing needle? Without changing the approach or perspective, usually, people blame each other 

• What if we continue or maintain our sewing journey with the wrong needle? What if we continue life with the wrong approaches or strategies?

• The right needle analogy helps to understand various perspectives for instance:

• Strategies vary from situation to situation and the best way to cope is to adapt, accommodate, assimilate and learn new perspectives or approaches. In other words, find the right needle

• For finding the right needle, the best approaches are reading, mentoring, webinar, seminar, discussions, research, training,  reflection, journaling and even reading this blog might provoke thoughts or insight to better understand the perspectives 

• This is my own journey with the right needle analogy for life. What is yours? is the thought of the day
